Groundhog Day Ideas

Groundhog's Day is coming up pretty quick and I thought I'd put together some fun ideas to help you out. This first one would be a yummy, cute way to celebrate:

It's a great time to discuss how shadows work and wouldn't it be fun to go outside with some sidewalk chalk and work with a partner in tracing our shadows? Just hand out sidewalk chalk to your students ( have them pair up ) 1 per group is fine. Then have one stand still they can put one hand up and one down creating a clever look. Their partner will trace their shadow on the blacktop or sidewalk. The kids get a kick out of this and it's the perfect time to talk more about the sun and shadows.

Here are a couple freebies that look awesome that you can grab if you are prepping for this special day!
